Equivalent to "How to" in guides and the like


When English nintendo website use “How to Charge the Controller”, In Japanese
nintendo website use “コントローラーを充電する”. It has no meaning of “how to”, but this
is a popular way. You can use “コントローラーの充電のしかた” too.

When you google “How to become a teacher?“ in Japanese, you should use “先生 なる
方法” or “先生になるには”.

There is no equivalent. One way would be to change the verb where appropriate
and make something like 寿司の作り方、漫画の描き方、ボスの倒し方, etc.

Or as the other answer said, use a generic word like 方法.
